Would you go to a party alone?
I’m kind of in this situation right now because my friend doesn’t know if she can come with me.
But I promised my other friend (who is throwing the party) that I would go just for her since she really wanted me to go.
I’m afraid I won’t know anyone else there except her if I go alone, plus I have anxiety.
I’m so nervous what should I do?

Where were you?
You can also watch events on Help.com as they happen
I would definitely go. :) I’m sure your friend will introduce you to the others. You can also introduce yourself. :)
You might be having anxiety because you think you will be the focus of attention. That’s not really true. Focus YOUR attention on other people. :) That will break the ice in a hurry. Give a few compliments. Smile. You’ll have a good time.
The worst part about it is walking in the door. B/c once you get there you’ll know people. Dont miss out on a good time b/c you have to walk in the room alone.
I think that you should go to the party. you told your friend that you would be their for her and you never know who will be their. You may make friends their that you wouldent have made if you didnt go! You shouldent stress about it be confident in yourself and talk to different people if you dont know anyone. And if your uncomfortable then you can leave if you want. But just making the effort and going youll feel better about it all. dont stress it just be yourself and have fun you never know what may happen!
As long as you know someone whos in there you will b fine!!!!! Go go go!
Ask yourself a question - “Do I want to go?”
If the answer is “yes,” you know what to do ;)
Alone/not alone is a secondary issue. Main is whether you want to go or not.
Im here dying for someone to throw a party and yu have one that yur invited to and contradicting yurself?!
GO!

Everywhere I go, I’m a party just waiting to happen!
Be more confident in yourself!!!
Go!

For safety reasons, I suggest that you find a different friend to go to the party with. Especially if you’re a girl. Nobody should go to a party alone in case you get too drunk, or if you start behaving differently, or if there’s creepy people that you shouldn’t be talking to. Even if you know everybody at the party, I would still say that you should go AND LEAVE with a friend. This ensures both of your safety and that you have a good time with somebody to talk to.

you are right
Tell your friend your a bit nervous on entering her home.
Ask her if she wouldnt mind meeting you first then she can introduce you to her friends :)
youre not really going alone if you know people who are there. youre literally just arriving on your own.
